The Kllbane-Wllllams contest was announced for tho Olympic Club on March 17. It promises to be one of the events of the ring season. The National Club now announces an all-star bill for the same nlsht. The fighters for the Olympla. bout are to receive $11,000, the largest guarantee ever offered here To obtain such a house will be dltllcult. There Is no question but that the at tractive program at tho National will drew many of the fans. While It Is true that n previous tentative contract with Kllbane appears to clvo the Nntinnni Club some grounds for grievance, the fact remains that the conllletlng bills will not do the sport any good. Tho merits of the case nro not under discussion. Tho ringside, patrons wnnt to see tho spoat, and a war among tho promoters will not benefit the fans, or the promoters either. Poor Slaves Should Worry Internal Revenue Bureau officials be lieve ball players will give them a lot of trouble this year when It comes to col lecting the Income tax.

The honesty of the play era will be all that will save the Govern ment this year, at least. Harvard paid pretty dearly for the dls. tlnctlon of being 1015 collegiate football champions. According to the latest fig ures It cost $2000 a man. New lork State s likely to find Itself without a boxing commission ere many uay, na uuvvriiur tvmirnun plans a radi cal reorganization. Friends of Joe Shusrue. tho Jersey boxer, are distressed to know that ho has lost Hie sight of one eye.
